We love Sue for her incredible humility and obvious love for all living. Here is a little excerpt from 'about' section of her blog:
Sue Clancy’s lighthearted story-book style has decorated the walls in universities, hospitals and other public settings. Her work has illustrated books and literary magazines. Her artist books have been included in public and private library, museum and historical center special collections. Her artist books for children have over 38,000 views on Storyberries.com
She is inspired by daily life: food, drink, literature, science, culture, pets and people. To create her visual stories and concepts she uses a variety of techniques, handmade paper collage, ink, gouache and acrylic. She designs visual stories that reflect both her inner world and her encounters with the external world. Imagination is the glue that binds them.
Upon receiving her BFA in Art from The University of Oklahoma, she embarked on a lifelong educational program of reading, traveling (in pre-pandemic times), listening to people and passing what she experiences through her imagination. She enjoys helping other people and places tell their stories visually.
